Woj: Brook Lopez getting Max contract

Nets.

This team will be the 2008-2012 Atlanta Hawks. They will never reach the ECF.

They're not beating Miami without Howard.

Well if this deal goes through they won't be able to sign and trade him Magic...Basically they have moved on.

I would pay Brook Lopez 5 million a year. That's it. This NBA is a ****ing mess. WORST run league in the US. Should be ashamed.

See my ..NBA is a joke thread

I don't know why you guys are acting like you're surprised. Anyway you sliced it, Brook Lopez was going to get a max deal.

Ditto, even 5M a year is too much for the likes of Brook Lopez, and I am a Nets fan...

[PJR]

I would never max out a big who averaged 6 rebounds per 36.

[Heavincent]

****

I don't even want Lopez on the damn team, let alone give him a max contract

[G-train]

This is a 20/8 big guy, who was an iron man prior to a foot injury.

Sure, offer him $5m.

Meanwhile, in reality he declines and someone pays him max and gets a top centre while you cant get a bucket inside the paint.

Well its not like they have a choice now, a healthy Lopez is better than no center

Orlando are fu*king around too long. Just trade Dwight already so everyone can move on So sick of this bullshit...

Yea, it sucks dude. Orlando has the leverage right now, and they don't have a retarded GM like their last one.Therefore we'll be seeing rumors/drama and other BS for the next few weeks or even months.

Surprised that not more teams are jumping into the Dwight rental, hell even mid season prior to playoffs they could pull something off.

[Maniak]

Talented big men are at a low in the NBA. Max could go to worse.

[midatlantic09]

Why is this a surprise? If guys like Deandre Jordan can get $10+ million a year, I'd say Lopez should definitely get the max.
